AppSignal Labs

Try experimental features early and help shape what we build next.

What to expect

  • Early access: Use features before they're generally available.
  • Rough edges: Labs features may be incomplete or change without notice. Not covered by our SLA.
  • Direct influence: Your feedback goes straight to the team building the feature.

Stages

Each Labs feature sits at one of three stages, which tells you how to get involved:

  • In research: We're exploring the problem and shaping the solution. You may see early pull requests, prototypes, or open calls for UX research sessions. Join a session to help us scope what we build.
  • In preview: Self-serve and ready to try. Turn it on yourself, explore what's there, and share your feedback in our Discord channel.
  • In beta: Closer to general availability. Some beta features sit behind a feature flag and may need to be enabled by Support. We're rolling these out gradually as we polish the rough edges.
